Sleepy Hollow, on Fox

A strange woman ends up in the vault, and the team tries to figure out who she is and with whom she's allied in this new episode. Tom Mison stars as Ichabod Crane, who was transported through time and now helps solve mysterious cases.

That was Bobby Cooper, a lesser-known star (compared to the rest of the people in that room), whose presence was likely due to the fact that Sean Penn seems to love him.

Designated Survivor, on ABC

Q: Greg Jbara was listed in "Blue Bloods" as "guest starring," then as "starring," and is now listed as "guest starring" again. Can you please tell me why?

Credits are a very complicated business, and the credits we see on screen have a lot of significance off screen as well.

Crediting someone as a "star" in a show instead of "guest star" (or "special guest star," as Greg Jbara is credited in "Blue Bloods") means changing their union-mandated pay scale -- it's a promotion in more than name.
